FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, it features Helly Tech Protection technology, designed to be waterproof, windproof, and breathable for urban use.
Can I use this for mountain hiking?
While it provides solid protection, it is primarily designed for urban and casual use; consider more technical gear for extreme alpine conditions.
How should I clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with technical detergent; avoid softeners and bleach to protect the waterproof membrane.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, it features zipped hand pockets for security and a chest pocket with a snap-button closure.
Does the hood adjust?
Yes, it includes an adjustable hood with a mouldable peak for improved visibility and fit.
What does bluesign approved mean?
It means the materials used in the jacket meet strict environmental and chemical safety standards throughout the production process.
Troubleshooting
Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric instead of beading off
The DWR coating may be wearing off; wash the garment and tumble dry on low to reactivate, or apply a fresh DWR spray treatment.
Condensation building up inside the jacket during activity
Ensure the front storm flap is adjusted for ventilation or layer with moisture-wicking fabrics rather than cotton underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this jacket is designed with adjustable components, take time to fine-tune the cuff closures and the lower hem cinch when you first put it on to find your ideal fit. To maintain the integrity of the Helly Tech fabric, always zip all pockets and close the front storm flap before laundering. Wash on a gentle cycle using a mild technical garment detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can strip the durable water repellent (DWR) coating from the shell. To reactivate the water-repelling properties, tumble dry on a low setting or follow the garment's specific care label instructions.
